Please turn the caps lock off, it's considered to be shouting when in an forum.

yes mate bluefin stage 1 is a massive difference from stock. expect a reliable 235bhp 250Ibft torque from it. And believe me once you go back to tock it feels rubbish.
£50 notes to bluefin ontop of that and a down pipe and sports Cat will get you stage 2 on your car which is even more again. much smoother power delivery over a longer rev range. around 250bhp 270+Ibft torque.
Its not as aggressive or as torquey as REVO but it still is very good

The Bluefin is a big improvement over stock, I had Stage1 but recently upgraded to Stage 2, which is a lot smoother due to the power coming in lower down the rev range, you will need a full turbo back exhaust though, if you dont have this , just go for Stage1, you will not be disappointed !!!!!!
Rich..... :happy2:

you dont need a turbo back exhaust.
On the bluefin site it quotes a Sports down pipe and Cat is all that is required.
I have the bluefin stage 2 with 3" pipewerx Dp and 200 cell sports cat, with code red air intake and filter and stage 2 bluefin. Works fine.
I also have the autotech internals in the post now from JBS autodesigns so will be stage 2+ as soon as it arrives.
with the Cat back you will get a very very minimal power gain but ore noise. its the down pipe and Cat that gives the bigger power release. changing to one 200 cell cat instead of 2 cats as is on the OEM
Sy :happy2:
